Artex was a popular choice for decorative ceilings and walls for decades. Unfortunately, much of it contained chrysotile, or 'white asbestos', which was a common building material back then. While the fibres are bound within the Artex when it's undisturbed, any drilling, scraping, or sanding can release microscopic asbestos particles into the air. Inhaling these fibres poses serious health risks. It’s simply not worth taking a chance with DIY removal. Our professional team understands these dangers completely and follows strict safety protocols to ensure a safe removal process, protecting both your family and our staff from harmful exposure.

When you choose Southern Asbestos for your Artex removal, you're opting for a systematic and safe approach. First, we come out to your Amersham property to carry out an initial inspection and, if needed, take a sample for lab testing to confirm the presence of asbestos. Once confirmed, our trained technicians meticulously prepare the work area, sealing it off to prevent any fibre spread. Using specialised equipment and techniques, we then carefully remove the Artex. After the removal, we perform a thorough clean-up, including air monitoring if necessary, to guarantee your space is completely clean and safe. All waste is carefully bagged, sealed, and transported for legal disposal at licensed facilities, providing you with all the required paperwork.
